The Nightmare of Misjudging Yardage on a Bull Elk at Full Draw | 100% WILD Podcast Ep. 480 In this episode of the 100% WILD Podcast, Matt Drury and Tim Kjellesvik kick off the opening of fall hunting seasons with raw, honest discussions on bowhunting mechanics, field mishaps, and current outdoor news. Tim reflects on his previous Dream Season Live hunt analyzing the high-pressure situation of misjudging yardage and giving a 350 class bull elk a haircut at 35 yards while letting down multiple times. Matt discusses his ongoing psychological battle with target panic, detailing the frustrating feeling of sight pins holding four inches low on the target face and sharing specific form adjustments—like lowering the release elbow, to help elevate the bow arm without punching the trigger. The hosts also tackle outrageous stories making headlines across the outdoor community. They break down a terrifying incident in Fenton, Missouri, where an Amazon delivery truck's windshield and packages were pierced by a stray 400 FPS crossbow bolt after a neighbor overshot his target from 100 yards away, sparking a vital conversation about suburban backyard shooting safety and backstops. Additionally, the crew rallies behind a 7 year old girl who faced viral online death threats from an Illinois school employee after sharing a picture of her first dove hunt, before closing out with early season EHD herd health concerns and 70-year-old Terry Drury slalom water-skiing. 00:00:00 – Welcome to Deer Season: Idaho Elk Prep & Studio Catch-Up 00:00:50 – Missed Shots on Camera: Reflecting on Last Year's Idaho Elk Hunt 00:02:00 – I Gave a 350-Inch Bull a Haircut: Misjudging Yardage at Full Draw 00:05:20 – The Unique Pressure of Having Bowhunting Failures Filmed 00:06:26 – Beating Target Panic: Why Your Sight Pin Holds 4 Inches Low 00:08:00 – Bow Form Adjustments: Lowering Your Release Elbow for Elevation 00:11:30 – First Deer of the Season: Dragging a Rotting Doe Before a Wedding 00:15:25 – Early-Season EHD Fears: Dead Does Found Near Summer Ponds 00:17:14 – Dove Season Opener: Heatwaves, Social Field Hunts, and Camaraderie 00:18:38 – Anti-Hunter Online Attack: School Employee Threatens 7-Year-Old Girl 00:20:50 – Defending Youth Hunters Against Internet Hate and PETA Attacks 00:30:20 – Late Summer Fun: 70-Year-Old Terry Drury Slalom Water Skiing 00:33:40 – CRAZY LOCAL NEWS: Crossbow Bolt Shoots Through Amazon Van Windshield 00:36:15 – Sighting in Crossbows in Suburbia: Backstops & Target Safety 00:38:50 – Sky Drawing Dangers & Safe Practice Techniques at Home Join the Rack Pack Facebook Group :/ n73gskjt7bfb2ngc Get ahead of your Game with DeerCast available on iOS and Android devices App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/deerc...
